Do You Need Tree Removal?
Given enough time, a tree will begin to die and decay. Other times, a tree can become hazardous due to homes, buildings and other structures nearby. Here are a few reasons it might be time to consider calling a tree service in Santa Barbara, CA to assess whether tree removal is the right choice your property:
- Rotting Trees – A rotting tree has serious damage, whether it’s from insects, disease, age or another cause. It needs to be removed before it can infect surrounding trees or fall on a nearby structure.
- Safety & Visibility – Lower limbs can be cut off in order to make the area below the tree safer or to create a better view.
- Root Encroachment – Tree roots spread under the soil a lot farther than the tree canopy. They wrap around water lines and push up concrete if possible. Cutting the tree down will eventually kill the roots and prevents them from destroying nearby property.
- Nearby Trees & Plants – A tree that has grown too big for its location impacts the smaller trees and plants around it by taking away water and nutrients and limiting their sunlight.
- Power or Phone Lines – Large trees interfere with these lines and create a danger for falling. Sometimes the power or phone company may demand these trees to be removed, or you can have trees removed to be safe.
